Default Re: Anyone want to help an idiot?

thank you. I understand the wire part. Thats easy enough. I get lost when you add in the diode. I have read the old thread a few times and it seems that everyone has different configurations. I guess I will figure it out. Thanks again.

I made 4 extra and mailed them to members for free. If I had any more, I'd make some up and mail them.

Look it up, that thread will give you part numbers. It's easy as pie.

As far as installing it, just read the instructions cause if we mailed one to you, you'd have to install it yourself anyways.

All you need is about a 4 inch wire both ends stripped.

Yes you do need the Diode. It allows the voltage from the headlight relay to pass thru it and power the running lights, but not allow power to go the other way. Without the diode, the voltage can pass the other way and turn on your headlights during the day when only the running lights are supposed to be on.

ryanh2 - Go to Radio Shack and get a #1N4007 Diode or anything close for about $.50 and a few small pieces of 16 gauge wire.
